Abstract
To provide an aqueous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) emulsion which does not substantially contain ammonium perfluorooctanoate, and which is obtained by emulsion polymerization. Further, to provide a PTFE fine powder which is obtained from the aqueous PTFE emulsion and is excellent in a paste extrusion processability, and a porous material.
